About Casandra
Experience: 15 yrs
COVID-19 vaccinated
I'm a mother and experienced provider with a passion for fostering children's growth and development. As a mom myself I understand the importance of reliable care. 20+ years of caring for children of various ages and abilities. I'm comfortable caring for multiple children at a time. I am known to be calm and patient and I communicate with parents about their child's day and any issues that arise by the method they prefer. Ran licensed childcare in my home for 3 years which included special diets and special needs children, which I really enjoyed. Have the equivalent of an associates in Early Childcare Education and love to keep up to date with latest info, my mom and sister have masters degrees in the field so it's a passion that runs in the family. My oldest is grown and my youngest is 6, so depending on which care times you need she would be with me.

Casandra is a professional, educated and fun caregiver that infants, kids and parents will love! She was a nanny to our sons, starting at age 17 months and 6. She went above and beyond expectations with the help she provided to our family during that time and our boys adore her. She babysat our kids occasionally prior to that and since then, including overnights. On days I was working from home, I was able to see her interact with our kids. She is very creative, engaging and active and kept our kids busy the entire day, in a calm and routine way. She understands what is developmentally appropriate for young children of various ages and knows how to handle challenging toddler behavior in a gentle, positive way.
